Chapter 158: Forever Brand Stove!

Although he had found another trouble for himself, fortunately Li Shilong did not ask Qin Mo to see the Supreme Emperor.

It can be considered a blessing among misfortunes.

That night, Li Shilong stayed at the Li Zheng Hall.

After a period of lovemaking, Li Shilong hugged Queen Gongsun with satisfaction, "Nian Nu, what do you say when Hongfu Nu enters the palace today?

Queen Gongsun sighed quietly, "She refused!"

Li Shilong frowned instantly, "Is this what Liu Chenghu meant?"

"Erlang, don't worry, listen to me." Empress Gongsun told Li Shilong the matter, "That's probably it. The daughter of the Liu family has a strong personality and is looking for life and death. She is not a good match for Chong'er!"

Li Shilong closed his eyes, "But for Yue'er?"

Empress Gongsun didn't answer and said, "Now that Yue'er also has the title of vassal king, shouldn't it be time to find a marriage for him?"

"Liu family?"

"Why does Your Majesty need to beat the mandarin ducks?"

Li Shilong sighed quietly, "Why is she Liu Chenghu's daughter? Any family can do it, but the Liu family's daughter can't do it."

"His Majesty.......

"Nian Nu, don't even you know my painstaking efforts?"

"I know this, but... I believe that the child will not have any other thoughts."

"You do not understand!"

Li Shilong changed the subject, "Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. I heard that Cheng Qian has recently begun to believe in Buddhism. Is this true?"

Queen Gongsun nodded, "I just found a little master and listened to him preach Buddhist scriptures!"

Li Shilong sneered, "Are you planning to convert to Buddhism?"

Queen Gongsun's expression changed, "Erlang..."

"Besides, he also slapped the Crown Princess, right?"

"I will go to the East Palace to see him tomorrow. He has been injured recently and is depressed. I will go and enlighten him!"

Li Shilong snorted, "If a small setback knocks him down, then he is not worthy of being the crown prince of Da Gan!"

Empress Gongsun saw it in her eyes and felt anxious in her heart. Li Shilong's words were not unimportant, and she was even a little disappointed.

He knew what his husband had gone through to get to where he was today.

It is impossible for a weak king to win the loyalty of his ministers, let alone to dominate the world!

In the dark night, Li Shilong was already asleep, but Queen Gongsun was tossing and turning.

In the deep silence of the night, a sigh came.

The next day, it was dark and bright.

It's rare for Beijing to have clear skies for two consecutive days. There was no snow last night, and I'm afraid it will be sunny again today.

But even so, the snow still didn't melt.

The first to get up were the ministers of the imperial court. They were neatly dressed before dawn and took a sedan to arrive outside the Meridian Gate.

Following closely were the ordinary people. When the sky got slightly brighter, the capital suddenly became lively.

I don’t know when, suddenly, there were a few people on the streets. These people were pushing four-wheeled carts, with large iron barrels placed one after another on the carts. They were followed by several people, also pushing carts. On top of the carts were piled as high as a hill.

Black briquettes.

They shouted all the way, "Forever Brand" stoves and briquettes!

"Owning a Forever brand stove saves money and worry. One briquette can burn continuously for four hours. It only costs three briquettes a day. The price of one briquette is as low as three cents, and it only costs nine cents a day. It meets the needs of a family!"

Along the way, many people were attracted and came up to ask, "Is your stove really so durable?"

"Of course!"

The leading man said: "Our stove is produced by Qinzhuang, does Qinzhuang know? It is the same Qinzhuang that makes fireplaces. Our craftsmanship is the first, no one dares to say it is second. It is very durable."

"How much does your stove cost?" an aunt asked.

The big man smiled and said: "Two taels of silver each!"

What?

Hearing this, the lady turned around and left, "Isn't this a scam? Two taels of silver is too expensive!"

The people around also shook their heads, "Two taels of silver is enough for me to buy firewood for two or three months!"

The leader of the big man said: "Everyone, let me settle the accounts for you. You will know whether our coal stoves are expensive or not!"

Many people stopped.

The big man said: "This coal stove is forged from iron sheets. It is very durable. The middle is made of triple soil and embedded with steel. It will be easy to use it for three to five years, let alone one year!"

Moreover, with our briquettes, it only costs nine cents a day. In winter, you need heating, but no matter what time, you need firewood for cooking.

There are three hundred and sixty-five days in a year, which means at least twenty cash per day. After one year, that’s seven thousand cash, which works out to seven taels of silver. I’d better take the less.

Our briquettes only cost nine cents a day at most. In a year, that's three thousand cents. Including the stove, it's only five thousand cents, which saves more than two thousand cents.

This is still the first year, the second year, and the third year. You can save at least four taels of silver every year."

The big man looked at everyone, paused, and continued: "Furthermore, large quantities will give you preferential treatment. If you buy 100 briquettes at one time, there will be a discount, and it only costs two hundred and seventy cents!"

Moreover, we deliver to your door, regardless of wind or rain, if the stove is damaged within a year, we guarantee a return or replacement!

Our boss is the current prince-in-law, Qin Mo, and he will never deceive everyone."

Everyone was stunned again. This was strange. It was the first time they saw a noble person from the imperial court doing business outside under their own banner.

Isn't this a joke?

However, ordinary people are the most diligent and thrifty in managing their homes, and they can actually do math better than anyone else.

After hearing the big man's words, their hearts had already been moved.

However, some people also doubt, "You say it is so good, is it really so useful?"

"Haha, since you don't believe it, then I will publicize it here today." The big man waved his hand, and the people accompanying him put down the stove one after another and ignited the briquettes on the spot. "Neighbors, who wants to boil water for cooking at home?

, just come, we only put three briquettes in each stove, whether it can be used for a day, you see it and you believe it!"

After hearing this, everyone went home and took out their boilers.

Put it on the stove, the fire is powerful and fierce.

Not only that, you can also adjust the firepower at will.

I spent a whole morning boiling water and cooking without stopping, and only used one briquette.

This level of burning resistance is even better than the best charcoal.

But charcoal costs 25 cents per pound, so some people can afford it.

Moreover, charcoal has no open flame, so it is not easy to use for cooking.

The shrewd man couldn't sit still and said, "Bring me a stove and bring me a hundred briquettes!"

"Okay, now I'll film someone and send him to your home!" The big man grinned, "From now on, our people will shout in the streets every day. If there is no more briquettes, just call him!"

"That's great!"
